Yeah I'm getting data.. Thank you so much. Is there any reason I would use the weatherlink software for anything now? Would weatherlink ever need to be updated? Thank you again be a big help to a weather dummy...

You can't set the station's logger interval using Cumulus, so you would need Weatherlink to do that. Note that it's best to have the station logger interval set to the same value as the Cumulus logger interval. Note also that setting the logger interval on a Davis station clears the logger memory.

You have a bit of tidying up to do with some of today's extremes (temp and pressure); I think the zero values possibly came from running with the wrong COM port. The easiest way to fix those is to stop Cumulus and edit today.ini to put some sensible values in. Your all-time records etc may also be affected. I'm not sure why you've had those values, I switch between weather stations regularly for testing, and today's rainfall is the only figure that ever goes awry (as expected).
